The concept that you are statistically unlikely to be Jesus.

This comic reminded me of a scene from the old Simon Pegg Comedy "Hippies" which turned the concept on its head.
A character is disturbed to discover that people are not Jesus, because that makes it statistically more likely that he himself is Jesus, and he's not sure he can handle the responsibility..

Didn't expect that from Zach. I'm sure he could do better (well, actually, what's more likely: that this strip was written by Zach or that it was written by someone else?).

Anyway, a relevant (and very old) XKCD strip: https://xkcd.com/1132/

This is the plot of The Last Temptation of Christ, by Scott Alexander (of SlateStarCodex fame).
